Nico starting on the softs was a masterstroke from mercedes, cant see what ferrari can do tomorrow to make this competitive, maybe hope for a well timed safety car.

That really screwed the Macca's !
I was sure they would make it through there for a moment.

I seriously dont understand the modern F1 anymore...20, 15 years ago when a driver had a broken suspension, blown engine, lost a wheel, or had any other malfunction, he allways tried to park the car as far from the track as possible (aside the track, or off it completely into the marshals drive-ins). But today both Wehrlein and Hulkenberg barely even tried to go out of the way. Wehrlein atleast did not ruin the first part due to enough time that was available, but Hulkenberg could definetly drive for few metres further and park right next to the barrier or even drive inside of them, leaving the session rolling till the end.

I might be wrong.

Lewis out of qualifying, he was never going to win the race with the penalty anyway, makes for a fun race to the podium tomorrow

Why not? From sixth place in the best car you can't win a race with a good start and quality driving afterwards? I used to be critical about LH but it's a bit harsh

Lets wait and see, going against the norm cost Ferrari in Melbourne.
Generally doing what 100% around you is doing, is the right choice.

Excellent Job Dan Ricciardo !

How ridiculous from Ferrari, both drivers making mistakes at the hairpin just when it mattered and no soft tyres. Own goal.

Lots of mistakes from Vettel from the looks of it; they could surely have been close without all the crappy driving. Kimi didn't even improve.

[F1NAC]

what a joke drive from both of Ferraris. bloody hairpin

[GPR-A duplicate2]

Incredible, Incredible, Incredible from Ricciardo. On a circuit with probably the longest straight, qualifying JUST HALF A SECOND, unbelievable.

[Sevach]

Rosberg has everything despite not looking all that great.

Ferrari dissapointed terribly.

[matt_b]

Not sure if Mercedes turned their engine to 11 like their final run in Bahrain or if Ferrari dropped the ball.

The Red Bull chassis appears to be quite phenomenal...I am certain Renault has made some changes to improve the power unit, but to be able to beat the Mercedes powered cars consistently is impressive.
